tasty food friendly staff main stairs box sash windows
The food was AMAZING!!! I particularly enjoyed the breakfast. The staff were polite and friendly, so that was a HUGE plus.
My room was next to the main stairs. I heard every person walk up them. The box sash windows in my room let me hear every vehicle go by, so that was quite disturbing.

easy access prompt attention delicious curry daily refreshment
I found the location to be superb, offering easy access to local trails. The staff provided prompt attention, easily adapting to my needs. The curry I had in the restaurant was quite delicious, especially the lamb option, it was a great dish. Biscuits were replenished daily in the room alongside coffee and tea.
The wifi signal strength in the room could be improved, I found it slightly weak.
